Attached is a cab installer for HTC Plus!
This application adds a nice clock and messages interface to the today menu, as well as adding an application launcher with included high quality icons for the applications.
As found, this application was non-functional. HTCImgCodec.dll has been added (exists in some ROMs already) and registry settings have been changed to disable the Backlight Adjust function. For some reason when this function is enabled the device hangs during boot and a hard reset is required to fix. You have been warned. DO NOT ENABLE BACKLIGHT ADJUST.
Screenshots below. More stuff to come.
UPDATE: I've replaced the file with an updated version. This update changes the installation defaults in a manner that should help anyone who experienced a problem installing the previous version. No changes are made in the plug-in, so if you already have it working don't bother updating.
another new one to try thanks bro awe3some!!
It looks interesting!! Thanks for the new stuff and more important, for the warning!
Very cool today plugin! Too bad it doesn't have weather... So, Ill stick to the HTC Home plug.
OK
Nice and pretty, thanks my friend.
not working x500 wm6 =(
now we need it customized like all the other HTC plugins.
Customisation
This plugin is easily customisable. The layout is stored entirely as bmp images under \Windows\HTCPlus. And all the programs chosen can be modified under HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCPlus\Shortcuts.

good
Very cool today plugin!
looks nice! can i still use htc customizer to customize it?
Nice today plugin.
However, it is still lag far behind O2 Plus, which has sould profile, call forwarding, task manager and more...
very nice man
Thanks
Nice! Although I still prefer HTC Home.
Looks great, but couldnt get it to work on my Touch. The today plugin does not appear on the screen, nor in the list with available plugins. The Options tab is present though :\
great thankz

Thanks a lot
I'm going to try it
Unfortunately not working
possible fix
I also originally had the problem where the plugin was not appearing in the list of plugins or on the today screen, but the HTC Plus tab was still displayed in settings. I was able to fix this problem by copying HTCImgCodec.dll into \Windows. I added it to the cab. Perhaps this file is not being copied? Check for its existence and try manually extracting it to \Windows if it doesnt show up.

I installed it on my Artemis with official HTC Asia WM6 rom and for me it works until you switch off the device. Than you can never switch it on again, only by soft reset with stylus!
So I uninstalled the prog quickly...
Otherwise it would be nice to have it on Today screen, so if someone could construct a bug-free cab from the extracted files I would really welcome it!
cheers
Will download an try when I get home!
has anyone been able to customize this plugin?
1. add voicemail to indicators
2. map text message indicator to palm threaded messaging app
i love the simplicity of this plugin, hopefully someone will develop this or perhaps point me in the direction on how to customize this plugin.
ive upgraded my device to wm6, I was wondering how do i get the big time clock, and shortcut keys for programs on the today screen? Ive seen it everywhere, but my one still looks plain.
thanks
Hi

cheers
thanks for your help
Hello, i'm getting puzzled by reading all these topics. I've just installed the original HTC new ROM, with WM6. I'm desperately searching for the HTC Home plugin, that beautiful today with icons and a big clock. I am sure that there should be a topic about that...but, could you be so kind to help me please?
Thank you
HTC P4350

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Just take the out of the box Home of your polaris and owerwrite the
icon files in windows folder with one of the icon packages around.
So you can exactly decide which icon to use for each single item.
Just be sure to quit and restart the Today Home after overwriting
the files with something like Resco Explorer.

Thanks for the info matey. If forgot to mention I have an O2 polaris... it doesnt have the HTC home app at all
Found it here: (Schen's 6 Button HTC Home today screen plugin v2.1.1005.722)

Hi does anyone know how to re-enable the touchflo 3d programs menu when the start button is pushed in 6.5 - like the way the default vodafone rom behaves?
I'm not really a fan of the default 6.5 start menu which tho interesting isn't as functional for me as the TF3D programs menu.
Thanks in advance for any assistance anyone can offer with this.
Regards,

Home button on HTC Touch Diamond 2
I agree!
Upgraded to WM6.5 yesterday, on my HTC Touch Diamond 2, and I really don't like this new method. The Programs tab that's on the far right would be much nicer to have under the home button.
I hope by now others have found a tweak for this.
Erjen.
